Judging by their performances this season, Barca have indeed placed high expectations on their fans. That's a stark contrast to the slow-paced, unambitious team at the start of the season. From the perspective of team operation, after the departure of some players with high annual salaries, the team has freed up a lot of salary space and is more comfortable in reinforcements. In terms of overall strength, the team has achieved a "two-pronged approach": on the one hand, several players with excellent cost performance have been signed in the transfer market, both excellent immediate combat strength and sufficient potential; on the other hand, excellent young players have sprung up like "mushrooms", which makes the team look full of vitality and vitality.
Especially in midfield, it looks like Pedri is making a good start for the team's young players. After a long period of recovery from injury, the midfielder once again occupied the team's main position. Judging from his performance, he has a very good level in terms of passing scheduling in midfield, and he also seems to be a big general in getting rid of the ball. With only three starting positions in midfield, Nico and Garvey, with the exception of Pedri, cannot be standing players, but their ability and potential are enough to make fans look forward to their future. However, relatively speaking, Phuket's performance is much inferior. Objectively speaking, in terms of talent, Phuket is not worse than the above players, and even better in some aspects, but his growth rate is obviously not up to expectations. Therefore, in the competition with other teammates, he is already completely at a disadvantage.
Unlike the midfield position, which relies more on "homegrown" players, the team still relies more on reinforcements in the transfer market at the forward line. Judging by the performance of the forward players this season, Aubameyang has become the best choice for the team's center position by relying on his excellent competitive form. Especially in Xavi's tactical system of pursuing speed and efficiency, Aubameyang's excellent speed advantage and good shooting ability have made him a good player in the team. In the team's top scorers list, he has scored six goals, ranking second. In terms of goals per game, he ranks first in the team with an efficiency of 0.86 goals per game. According to Western media, Aubameyang has become the most secure striker in the team, and in any case, he will occupy a place in the team's lineup next season. For the 32-year-old goalscorer, it is also quite an inspirational experience to be able to play an important role in a team like Barca in the final seasons of his career.
However, in addition to Aubameyang, the other three forward players on the offensive end are not optimistic about the prospects in the team. Let's start with Depay. The Dutch shooter was the team's most efficient scorer in the first half of the season and has been the player with the most goals scored in the team. However, after a long period of injury, Depay, who returned to the pitch again, found that his main position seemed to have disappeared. Moreover, the team's tactics in the second half have also changed compared to the tactics of the first half of the season. The technical characteristics of the need to take up a lot of ball power in the attack seem to have not matched the team's simple and fast tactical style. For his situation in the team, Depay must have been quite critical. After all, he is still in the year of playing, and the opportunity to play is what he values most. For Barca, if Depay can't contribute enough to the team, his valuable contract will become a "burden" for the team. In this case, the team already seems to have the idea of selling it at the end of the season.
Let's look at Luke De Jong. The high striker showed great efficiency after going through a "dirty" phase. But given his age, barca are unlikely to eventually keep him. Finally, let's look at Braysvert. The Danish goalscorer's performance this season is a "flash in the pan", once having played very brightly, but has rarely played after returning from injury. Although his willingness to leave the team is not strong, in the case of fierce competition in the forward line, even if he continues to stay in the team, it is almost impossible to get a decent opportunity next season. Therefore, Laporta is bound to persuade him to leave the team and make room for the team to sign a new signing.
In this case, Barca need to sign a top-level attacker in the center position, a scoring machine that can bring 30 goals per season to the team. According to Sport italia, Laporta has made decisive progress in Lewandowski's transfer operations. The two sides have basically reached an agreement that Barca will pay a transfer fee of between 50 million euros and 60 million euros. As the all-European Golden Boot scorer, Lewandowski's competitive level is beyond doubt, and his arrival will be a top enhancement to Barca's overall strength.
